Good to know your options while you’re still in control. Being able to take your data & identity across platforms really matters now. But @bellack.com@bsky.brid.gy’s piece also hits the real question - who’s watching the watcher? #Decentralization #DigitalRights #OpenSocialWeb #ActivityPub #ATProto #SocialMedia

@dansup promoting something do not make you arrogant

ActivityPub doesn't need task forces to build onboarding resources.
It just takes one person and a bit of courage.
For both developers and the public.
https://fediverse.info - for the public
activitypub.social - for devs (coming soon)

Hot take: Your ActivityPub project is invisible.
I got TechCrunch coverage for Loops with literally just a signup form because I wouldn't shut up about it.
Ship in public. Make noise. Be annoying if you have to.
Stop being humble. Start being loud. Your project deserves attention but you have to demand it.

I don't think it takes billions to build a platform but it does seem that it usually requires millions to get more than a few people using it.
I have accounts on loops, lemmy/piefed, mastodon, element and more. I've never met a person IRL that uses them and I've never gotten to know anyone in an online community (gaming, interest forums, etc.) that use them. Viewing my loops app makes me feel like I'm alone on an island. The communities I follow on Lemmy/Piefed will go weeks without a post. The communities I manage will go the same without a submission from the community. Now that my immediate family have grown tired of the bugs on element after I forced them to use it to chat with me, I am literally the only person I know on the messaging platform.
I love open source but if I were the type of person that required a true sense of a well-rounded social community, I would use something like tiktok to scratch that itch.

They want you to think building platforms like TikTok requires billions in VC funding.
Reality: Laravel, Vue, federation, and a vision beyond profit.
@loops is my middle finger to tech gatekeepers who said only monopolies can build this.
High school dropout + open source + refusing to compromise = your federated TikTok.
The tools were always free. They just didn't want you to know.

@Edent those are interesting numbers. Thank you for sharing them!
